About New York Tours is a tour guide service established in 1993 specializing in student and adult group tours. We do not give the "Chamber of Commerce" tour but strive for much much more. Our desire is to show and share our city in all its charm, diversity, and eccentricity. We do not own our own vehicles or have regularly scheduled tours, but specialize in the following:
STEP-ON GUIDE SERVICES - Our tourist guides meet you at your location and the ensuing tour is always customized, whether it be walking tours, bus tours, shopping, dining, whatever. All our guides are experienced, mature, and reliable.
COSTS: Step-on guide service only (walking or coach)
Half-Day (4 Hours)...............$185.00
Full Day (8 hours).................$310.00
AIRPORT TRANSFERS - We provide transportation to and from all major local airports. We meet yu with coach driver and tour guide, or just coach and driver. For groups this form of transportation is usually more economical and always more convenient than taxis, car services, and public transportation.
VEHICLE CHARTERS - We do not directly own vehicles but arrange for charters of any duration, but with a four hour minimum. Vehicles range in size from pedicabs to 85 passenger doubledeckers.
ENTERTAINMENT-SHOPPING-DINING: We know the City night and day and can arrange tour tickets and/or reservations to the best New York has to offer. Want to shop? We'll show you where and bring you there. A particular strength of our agency is a thorough knowledge New York's diverse restaurants and markets. Any purchase of tickets and/or reservations requires notice, full prepayment, and a small surcharge. Most tickets are non-refundable.
MAIL BAG
"N.S. here, one of the teachers from Manor School, Dublin, Ireland that you brought on a guided tour of New York recently. Once again it was the highlight of our trip and we wanted to thank you for that. The girls had a ball and are the envy of all their classmates here!!"
"I thought I'd let you know some of the feedback from our group after receiving their rating sheets. The responses were extremely positive, especially regarding your guide work. They enjoyed getting off the beaten track, especially the Lower East Side. I'm sure very few groups get to gorge themselves on knishes, dill picklles, and egg creams from that historic area. Mazeltov!! - L.P., Winnipeg, Manitoba
"Again THANKS for all the support and guidance you gave my students while in New York...The way my students are talking, we may just want to plan another trip this fall." T.S., Oregon, WI.
"Just a brief note to thank you for the help, courtesy (and knowledge) during our recent visit to New York. The students are still talking about the tour - and you!!" J.B., Swansea, Wales
